Places of the Bible

  • Death of Amon · 640 BC

Where the name appears

Events told in passages that name Uzza, and how many of their verses do. That is not the same as saying they happened here: a place can be named as a landmark, as somewhere being travelled to, or as the subject of a prophecy.

A dot is a moment; a bar is something that lasted, drawn to its length. The fainter the mark, the fewer verses name the place.

  • Reign of Manasseh · 696 BC · 1 verse
  • Reign of Amon · 641 BC · 1 verse

Easton’s Bible Dictionary

Strengh, a garden in which Manasseh and Amon were buried (2 Kings 21:18, 26). It was probably near the king’s palace in Jerusalem, or may have formed part of the palace grounds. Manasseh may probably have acquired it from some one of this name.

From M. G. Easton, Illustrated Bible Dictionary (1893), in the public domain.
